Vin+ 3,121 Posted October 11, 2017 Cardinals acquired Adrian Peterson from the Saints in exchange for a conditional 2018 sixth-round pick. It is something of a surprise after the Saints RBs coach talked up Peterson during the bye week, but the move makes sense on both sides. Peterson was never a fit in New Orleans, and his departure opens up touches for both Mark Ingram and Alvin Kamara. The Cardinals need to find a way to jump-start the running game, and Peterson is a good fit in their power scheme. That said, it is not a given Peterson has any more success than Chris Johnson behind a bad offensive line, and Arizona is likely to remain a pass-heavy attack. Peterson is now worth rostering in all leagues, but Jerick McKinnon and Aaron Jones are better adds. Source: Dianna Russini on Twitter Chris Johnson got released.

Milla4Prez63 678 Posted October 12, 2017 He has to seriously be regretting not just taking a paycut to stay in Minnesota. Sometimes stars find out the hard way that leaving a team where you've played for a long time and have a loyal fan base is not always fun. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Favre4Ever+ 4,476 Posted October 12, 2017 The Cardinals like throwing to their backs once in a while. I don't think AP fits into that mold very well. I guess all he wants is touches what. What if the Cardinals give them to him and he still blows? Wonder if he will finally realize that he is done. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
